Olfactory-auditory sensory integration in the olfactory tubercle. Bar graphs of average stimulus evoked responses across 17 units in response to tone (left), odor (middle, see methods for odor) and simultaneous tone and odor presentations (right column).hus, both accessory and main olfactory systems converge in the olfactory tubercleâpresenting this structure as a âmixedâ olfactory cortex (Martinez-Marcos, 2009). These anatomical points highlight the likely role of the tubercle in the processing of odors.
Precancerous condition. A precancerous condition or premalignant condition, sometimes called a potentially precancerous condition or potentially premalignant condition, is a state of disordered morphology of cells that is associated with an increased risk of cancer. If left untreated, these conditions may lead to cancer.
Non-cancerous conditions of the thyroid. A non-cancerous, or benign, condition of the thyroid is a change to thyroid cells, but it is not cancer. Non-cancerous conditions do not spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body and are not usually life-threatening. The following are non-cancerous conditions of the thyroid.
